open html with pictures and save (2002 SP3)

Topic

I open a web page with a lot of .png images, with word. The html code in the web page creates the images using cgi’s stored in a server. So the images are not loaded, but created on the fly, with parameters html passes to the cgi’s.

Word displays the entire web page (text and images) in a document style.

If I save this document as .doc when I open it again, the hyperlinks are still there and the images are re-generated from the cgi’s. They were not stored in the document as images. I can’t share this document. I want to get rid of the html code and save as a “flat file”. I can print to a .pdf but I rather preserve the document in word format.

How do I export or save the web page including pictures as a flat word.doc file?

Thank you

Try the following on a copy of the document. What happens if you select the entire document (Ctrl+A) and replace all fields with their results (Ctrl+Shif+F9)?

sadly, my function keys are disabled. What command is that?

I have to access it through the menu.

I don’t know if this will work:
Select Edit | Links…
Use Click and Shift+Click to select all links.
Click Break Link… and confirm.

The command is a not-on-the-menus-unless-you-add-it-yourself command named UnlinkFields. One way to discover command names — if your keyboard’s F9 key is not disabled in the keyboard shortcuts dialog — is to try to assign the key combination to a new command. Word will tell you the current assignment and then you cancel the keyboard dialog, click All Commands in the list on the Commands tab, and drag the relevant item to a menu or toolbar.
